The message does not include pitch, but it is my opinion from years of copying
cw that the best pitch is a function of the listeners hearing. It is worth
some effort to determine the best pitch for your ears, as we get older we have
dead spots which are a function of your experience, so while I like around 550
to 600, you may like a different pitch as if you are trying to copy a frequency
that is in your dead spot, you may have a harder time than if you move it some.

My late brother (KU2P / 4X1AK) was a clarinetist as well as a
programmer, and taught himself CW with no problems. May he rest in peace.
